Message: [QUOTE="Uconnfanatic, post: 2624676, member: 4150"] Always tough to Always tough to debate with someone who wants to take things out of context or tries to create a straw man argument. In a previous post I wrote: "I never said take a lesser coach. I am just not convinced that Hurley is a better coach than some of the other possibilities." If two guys rate similarly, why get into a bidding war and pay two or three times the salary for one just because he happens to be the hot commodity at the moment. Nobody's saying be cheap. I'm saying don't get caught up in an emotional bidding game just because you locked onto one target. As for its importance to the state budget, I will quote Everett Dirksen from a comment he made about the Federal budget back in the sixties: "A billion here, a billion there and pretty soon you are talking about real money." It is no wonder this country and this state are in such trouble financially. All those seemingly small percentages add up. [/QUOTE]
